About This Item

Very good condition book. Cracked spine.

Description from back cover: "My name is Bob. Although I am only twenty-four, everybody calls me Father, including folks who are twice my age or even three times. This is because I am a priest, and it is my business to be a spiritual father to my people, doing for them the things of God, which include more things than you might think.

"The reason I am a priest is because I can never get out of my head the quotations, 'What does it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lost his immortal soul.'"

Father X, the author of this book, ism indeed a young priest—and a very wise humane, and witty one. This book is his account of his first five years assisting Father Tim Malloy of St. Rose Parish. The names are fictitious, but the people, problems, and events are very real, very touching, and, sometimes, very funny.
